Kinda surprised he'd be considered a priority, as we seem to have enough dumb muscle for the coming season in Butcher and that bampot from Dunfermline. In terms of priorities, I'd hoped: 1. get Good back on loan; 2. locate a cynical goal-hanging striker near the end of his career; 3. give GMS Chinese burns until he re-signs. For all his strengths, Macnamara's signing strategy remains very much unproven. ETA: Today's Tully mentions Jiri Lenki in the tour party. I guess he could be related to Jiri Lenko, a journeyman left-sided defender last seen at SC Wiener Neustadt, and possessor of a bog-awful showreel. Hey, hang on there ..... left-sided defender left-sided defender left-sided defender Bums. |

Aggressive, eh? Here he is after attacking an advertising hoarding with his nose... http://www.vg.no/sport/fotball/tromsoe/tromsoe-stopper-skadet-etter-reklameskilt-kollisjon/a/10104821/ * Presumably he didn't feature against us in 2011 or the official site would have mentioned it. |

His wiki page is a catalog of unfortunate injuries . I expect him to slip on a pen and fracture a vertebrae or two when he walks into Tannadice for the pre tour meet. He does have a decent number of games under his belt though. So hopefully will keep Souttar working hard. |

It appears Tromsø released him with a year still remaining on his contract, which'd be odd given he was a regular-ish starter. Anyone know the story there? ETA: well, he's a big unit ...

Between Fojut, Morris, Souttar, Dillon and Butcher, we should have decent options and competition for the central positions. I think hard to say who'll be the first choice, which is probably a good thing. |

Large and clumsy, but hard if he ever catches up with anyone. Meh. Sort it out, Housty. |

We do seem to have gone for the big aggressive types. No doubt come christmas, there'll be calls for a defender who can pass the ball. |

It's a rule I've just made up that managers want to recreate the most successful team they played in. So: Morris is the Stubbs and this big fella is the Rieper. Plausibly. |

Try that theory on EastFud and brace yourself for page upon page of "Grim" banter. Here - silence. |

Well that's obviously Brian Graham, I'm just trying to remember if Mcnamarra was Watson or Robertson |

Courier says we've rejected bids for GMS and Robertson. Surely GMS is better than League 1, can't see that being a good move for him. Also, the trial left back seems to have gone home without any deal. |
